Re: Bonding

Posted by Albert on 5/14/2008, 8:29 pm, in reply to "Bonding "

I woke up this morning and saw a large chunk of my bonding missing on my canine. but I am the unlucky few who grind their teeth at night (bruxism) and last night I forgot to wear my mouthguard. I had six of my front teeth bonded around december last year and I personally experienced a lot of chipping.. but some people may argue otherwise, discoloration-wise I didn't experience any of that.. yet. I also had botox on my jaws to relax my jaw muscle and that did HELP a lot to reduce my teeth grinding, but I think the effect is wearing off and I need to get it done again. Bottomline, if you have bruxism and you want to get bonding, invest in mouth guard or get botox on your jaws.
